New English Translation
40 Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He[a] said to Peter, “So, couldn’t you stay awake with me for one hour? 41 Stay awake and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 42 He went away a second time and prayed,[b] “My Father, if this cup[c] cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will must be done.”
